Related to my earlier post, I realized the Internet had an oops, and Stephen Goldin’s reference site of the Marion Zimmer Bradley and Elisabeth Waters depositions had poofed. It is now back online, linked from my shiny new Marion Zimmer Bradley tl;dr page. Note that I haven’t yet corrected the internal links because I needed […]

Update: Mark is now out of the hospital and doing as well as he can be. Mark Greyland, aka the son of Marion Zimmer Bradley, needs your help. He’s currently in the hospital; he entered the ICU with diabetic ketoacidosis a few days ago. His doctor had never seen a blood sugar reading that high. […]

Catherine Schaff-Stump has a great post: she’s got a copy of Mists of Avalon, and would like to see people donate to RAINN because of the recent revelations about Marion Zimmer Bradley’s abuse of her children. Here’s her post. Thanks Cath!

Note: topic is child sexual assault. Another piece of Walter Breen/Marion Zimmer Bradley history came via snail mail today. The events recounted weren’t given a time, but checking against the Breendoggle suggests that it’s of the same era as the Breendoggle (1964).

C.A. Starfire has an interview with Mark Greyland, the son of Marion Zimmer Bradley and Walter Breen. I thought everyone knew and that I was such a bad person no one would speak to me. And, later, addressing the inheritance issue: I was disinherited by language that sounded so unlike my mother that I knew […]

I’ve had a blog for 10 years, but I’ve been irregular for periods about posting to it before WordPress had a good spam solution. These days, an average day for me is between 100 and 250 page views and between 70 and 150 unique visitors. Obviously, this excludes people who turn off tracking. For reasons […]

There have been some super-interesting conversations about Marion Zimmer Bradley’s work in the context of larger discussions on the artist vs. their art. I think we all know that all artists are flawed, but clearly some flaws are larger than others. For those of you who don’t yet know, I broke the news about Marion […]

Alison Flood of The Guardian wrote this piece about Moira’s revelations about her mother Marion Zimmer Bradley. Damien Walter has another piece, “How far can culture heroes’ work stand apart from their lives?”

From William H. Patterson’s book Robert A. Heinlein, Vol 2: In Dialogue with His Century Volume 2: The Man Who Learned Better, p. 263. At just that moment, in fact, science-fiction fandom was tearing itself apart over the preemptive cancellation of the membership of a suspected pedophile by PacifiCon, the most recent world science-fiction convention, […]
